I'm young and stupid, in a hurry to grow up but enjoying the ride,
and i think way too much. I just graduated from Millsaps College in
May with a double degree in Religious Studies and Philosophy!
Intelligence
turns me on, and I'm known for dating the nerdy type, at least if
you ask ANY of my friends. I'm addicted to great conversation. What
defines a great conversation? Well, it starts with a glass of good
wine and generally involves some type of philosophical argument,
particularly purpose and existence of God. I've developed my own
opinions and enjoy arguing. (Not the type of fight arguing,
the intelligent and firm, but friendly arguing.)

Lately, since I've graduated, my friends have been trying to get me
to go out to the places to get a drink here in Jackson. Apparently
that's what all the normal recent college grads do in order to find
guys. ... and I'm on okcupid! Ha that's me though, I'll never turn
down an opportunity to try something different! About the bar
thing... I generally get really sick of it quick and run home to
slip on some PJs and get back to my computer... believe me? (Yes,
there are girls on the internet) But really, I'm more of a small
group of people kind of gal. However, don't shy away form asking me
out for drinks if you're interested! That rant is more directed at
going out to look for men, if I go with one... well that's a
different story!

I love a good pair of heels and feeling sexy. I believe I am truly
one of a
kind which is sometimes a bad thing, or I'm at least one of a
kind down here in the South. I'm a born thinker and I know when to
shut up and listen! Man, those types of people are very hard to
come by in my opinion. Generally if someone is smart and knows it
you never hear them shut up about themselves. THAT is one of my
biggest turn-offs!

I also hate sponges and paper cuts! Ha, I'm actually overcoming the
sponge phobia! Living alone without a dishwasher kind of forces
your to develop immunity of some sort! Paper cuts; eeesh, yep they
still give me the heebie jeebies. I have to be really craving
Macaroni Grill in order to go there, that paper they put on the
table is terrifying!

I LOVE traveling, but seriously... who
doesn't? Another great thing about my college (and the past few
years of my life)... I have been all over the place (at least for
someone who hadn't really been anywhere before) thanks to either my
college directly or the people I have met. In the past years I've
been to NYC, All over England, The greater parts of the Mid-West,
Israel, and this summer? GREECE! ... Ok, let's be serious. Greece
was not all that I thought it was going to be... mostly due to the
trip, not the country! I did get to scratch something off of my
bucket list however! Maybe I'll tell you what that was
...eventually.

Right now? Well how nice of you to ask since I hate this question!
To be fair I'll answer it; I just stepped into the big, bad, real
world of job hunting! Ugh, someone stab me in the face with a fork.
I received some of the greatest advice ever from a waitress at CS's
the other day. She asked me what I was doing now that I graduated
and I said I didn't know. Then she asked how old I was and I told
her 21. She replied, "Baby, you gots plenty o time. jis dun git
yerself pregnant!" That! my friends is the greatest advice I have
received to this date about where I am in my life. However, bills
are coming in and I need to find SOME kind of job to pay
them...

I'm reading, for the first time in a LONG time I am able to read
what I want, at the pace I want, whenever I want! I tell you what,
I had forgotten how relaxing getting lost within a story can be!
Reading so much for Millsaps classes challenged me to keep a hold
of the joys in reading, and I definitely lost that challenge. The
rediscovery of one of my old favorite past times is so much more
rewarding though.

Eventually... let's be honest. I am not your career ambitious, "I
must make my first million in business before the men in my
graduating class!" kind of woman. What's most important to me is
raising a loving, amazing family someday. Now I know that isn't
typical of a Millsaps grad, but it's the truth. If you're turned
off by a woman who wants to work simply because she wants to, or
who doesn't care about how much she is making and what she is doing
as long as she enjoys it, then sorry to disappoint but, you should
stop reading. That doesn't mean I'm scared of working. I just don't
want my life to revolve around an office job. Honestly I would love
to take my whoa too expensive degree and open a florist shop! I
mean a HOLY florist shop, have to stick to my major somehow!

What I want more than anything in the world is someone to share my
growth with. I will be reading and thinking for the rest of my
life... I just want someone to talk to about it who will be doing
the same with theirs.

Making people laugh... I'm THAT kind of funny, you know... the one
who never means to be? I like it about me though. I make the most
amazing puns
without meaning too.

So... I might also be a bit of a closet nerd. Everyone has their
escapes... I just so happen to log onto Anarchy Online and kill
shit! And yes, I could kick your ass. Therefore, if the idea of a
girl kicking your ass in video games is something you can't
handle... well, there are plenty of other girls on this site! ;)

I don't get to watch enough movies... I need a good movie partner!
That being said, my favorite movie genre ranges from There Will Be
Blood! (Daniel Day Lewis ftw) to Wall-E. During Oscar season I'm
one of those people that needs to see all the nominees before the
awards!

I really like sushi, the fake kind, I'm a total pansy. Mostly, I
grew up in New Orleans and I'm very attached to that part of my
family culture when it comes to food! Nothing is better than a
crawfish boil with a good beer and great people!

I am either on my computer, possibly out at a local pub, or
relaxing with a glass of wine and some friends. Regardless of which
I am actually up to, I always find a good time, or a way to enjoy
myself!

Probably my nerddom. As you can tell from the "What I'm really good
at..." portion. It's true. Most people I know have no idea how
nerdy I am when my door is closed lol... But I mean it, I probably
spend too much time online at the moment. I can't seem to quit or
switch games, I've invested too much time. Isn't that an
oxymoron!

... I also sing, but it's something that's extremely personal to
me. In other words, you won't see me at the karaoke bars any time
soon.

You are interested in anything I've written at all. Especially if
you can see through my careless writing and are pretty damn sure
there is a smart, interesting, confusing as hell, but safe, loyal,
and genuinely GOOD
GIRL underneath it all. But seriously, How the hell are you
supposed to make yourself sound attractive and desirable via
typing? Someone let me know... I'm open to any editing
suggestions.

If you have read this far, have laughed to yourself at least 3
times or, have thought "Wow, that's sounds just like me!" to any
part of my profile you should probably send me a message! I hope
you will, I know it's hard to think of a "good first message" so
I'll try to make it easier. You could just answer this question;
What is your absolute favorite past time that you have to
participate in at least once a week or the whole week sucks? I hope
to hear from you soon!

... on that note, I've been really busy since I graduated taking
lots of little trips all over the place! So sorry if I didn't
respond to you quick enough! Seriously, I am.
